Features: This book starts with Kant's transcendental philosophy and encompasses the entire scope of modern Western philosophy. It integrates the philosophies of Heidegger, Wittgenstein, and Peirce, critically absorbing multiple intellectual resources such as Marxism, hermeneutics, linguistic analytical philosophy, and pragmatism. On this foundation, it forms a unique transcendental hermeneutics—pragmatics theory centered around the concept of the "linguistic community of interaction."
